Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy keyhole escutcheon with symmetrical foliate openwork on either side of the moulded head of a cherub. The top of the keyhole remains, but the bottom half of the escutcheon, which would have completed the keyhole, has broken off.
Read (1988) illustrates a drawer-handle with similar decoration on page 203, No.1423, which is dated to the 18th century.
Bailey (1993) illustrates a very similar gilded example on page 16, No.6, which is dated to the 18th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Tyacke, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
